How reporting works

Turn a bribe demand into a clear, responsible record.

Makkal Saatchi helps you document a first-hand incident by service, place, amount and available proof. Clear reports make repeated public-service corruption easier to identify.

Five simple steps

File a report without a long, confusing form

Each section asks only for related details. You can review everything before submitting.

  1. Step 1

    Location

    Select the district, area and office or service location where it happened.

  2. Step 2

    Bribe demand

    Choose the report category and record the amount demanded or paid.

  3. Step 3

    Incident details

    Add the date, time and a factual description of what occurred.

  4. Step 4

    Privacy and evidence

    Remain anonymous if needed and attach available supporting proof.

  5. Step 5

    Review and submit

    Confirm that the details are truthful, then place the report on record.

What makes a useful report?

Keep the report specific, factual and based on your experience or evidence. A submitted report records an allegation for review; it is not by itself proof of wrongdoing.

State exact facts

Describe the service, office, demand, date and amount without speculation.

Attach lawful proof

Receipts, acknowledgements, payment records and messages can support review.

Protect your identity

Personal details are optional in this platform when anonymity is important.

Official escalation

Need action on a demand for bribe?

Makkal Saatchi helps build a structured citizen record. It does not file an official complaint with an investigating authority on your behalf.

Government of Tamil Nadu guidance states that a complaint about a demand for bribe may be made to the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC), in person or by phone, or to the local vigilance office.

Anonymous submission on this platform is separate from any official complaint process. For official action, use the authority's stated reporting channel.
